[QUOTE="Trophy, post: 227419, member: 42797"] It only clicked in my final year of university. I had the experience of applying and getting rejections in 2nd year, once i went into my final year rejections did not phase me as much as they did when I was in 2nd year every rejection felt personal (its not) haha. AI is a great tool, use it to break down what the application question is asking. It's easy to think what the question is asking but i may be asking something else always clarify. I had a method of including a case/deal the firm worked on that interested me and linking it to my interested whether it's a well known brand or it's a holiday destination I've been to I tried to relate with the case/deal i was using. Open days, law fairs, dinners, LinkedIn connections from alumni all to gain insight. It was ight work writing the answers as i had more than enough information, zero attachment to firms, did enough online tests to last a life time so I knew i had cracked it when i got lots of next stages for firms only i could wish for. I did not meet the A level requirement for many firms but progressed. There was of course 2/3 firms i loved and had breakdowns when rejected but onwards and upwards I will move there laterally if not securing a TC there :) There will be a point where you hit a wall but in January once tings are up and running, offers are flying about you will get that urge to apply. As for now focus on your studies get the best grades you can in your 2nd year and work on answering written examples of work as this is an area people fall short with on schemes. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
